Needs better design and power source

Love it!!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I have been using this lock for a little over a month and it works great! I guess the only complaint I have is that I’ve already had to replace the batteries. I figured it had very little power consumption but I guess I was wrong. No big deal though, they are very easy to get to and change, so it’s ok. My front door sits and the bottom of the stairs so it’s nice to be able to unlock the door for friends and family from upstairs or when I’m away. The lock has some pretty cool features and, coupled with my Nest Doorbell, I feel pretty safe and secure. Anyway, I would highly recommend this product.

Easy install. Works well.
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Easy to install and pair. Doesn’t respond quickly to iphone app or Siri. It takes a few seconds on the app, a few more via Siri. But it’s secure and so far fool proof.

top tier product
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.August smart locks have always been my go-to. they haven't let me down yet, and the set up and ease of use is probably my favorite part. the app is simple, you can add guests and set parameters for them to have access to your property. 10/10 would recommend.

Nice August upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Excellent upgrade over the third generation lock. With a two in one design, of both the lock and detector. The only issue I have encountered so far is that the batteries are more expensive, cr123 vs the old AA, and I have to replace them twice as more often.

A- Overall
||Posted .This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I've had this Smart Lock for a few months. Install and set up was very easy. Had to play with it for a while to see the overall workings of it. All in all, it is a good product. Very spotty with wi-fi connection. My router/modem is within 5 feet of the smart lock and it has connection issues often. Every few hours, I get a notification about smart lock reconnected to wi-fi. Because of the spotty wi-fi, some of the auto-lock/unlock features can be a hit or miss. When everything is working correctly, it's a big hit.

Massive upgrade
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Works really well with the app, it’s significantly smaller than the older version. Sometimes HomeKit fails to unlock it. Set it up when I unlock my door, it turns my lights on in that room to 70% which makes life easy.

Great simple lock
||Posted . Owned for 2 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is my second august lock. My first is the Yale/August deadbolt with touchscreen keypad and this one was installed on the door leading from my garage. I never like the garage door always being open and don’t want to carry a key around so this fit my situation perfectly. I also installed the door sense and the Auto Unlock works flawlessly. I park in my garage, get out of the car, and the door is unlocked. I never have to wait for it to be unlocked as other reviewers have stated. I did get the keypad as well In case for some reason the Auto Unlock doesn’t work. I do have one negative and it’s that I purchased and installed this lock on July 27th and I already got a notification that the batteries were low and needed to be replaced. Luckily I had a couple of extra 123 type batteries at the house so I was able to install them right away. I’m hoping this isn’t the case where I’ll have to change them monthly. Overall I’m extremely happy with the lock and wouldn’t hesitate to buy a couple of others for other locations.

Definitely a Buy !
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.Great product. I bought this because it is Apple approved. Glad that it was in stock at the store. Very easy to install and set up. We are using the auto lock and Auto Unlock features and they work very well. So glad we bought this and would definitely recommend it.

Easy to install lock; works with homekit
||Posted . Owned for 1 week when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I installed 3 of these at my home and I really thought they were easy to install. The App takes some getting used to. Overall they have been great and I love having auto-lock feature and the unlock when I come in geo range. It's so useful and convenient. I'm taking 1 star off because I wish they worked with my homepod a bit faster. It takes a good 5-10 seconds for the lock to react when using home app. I know this might not be an issue with the August lock itself, but as this is what I bought them for it is disappointing I have to use the august app to use these.

So I was not sure the price was worth it but I wa!
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.At first, I thought the price was too high for a new version, but I was wrong. This thing is amazing. The size and the way it works are great. It’s so much smother than the Gen 3 version and fits well. the extra back plate is a nice security feature than I recommend you use. Good job, August!!

Worst lock I’ve owned
||Posted . Owned for 1.5 years when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This is by far the most frustrating lock that we have ever owned. The lock keeps disconnecting and connecting to the wifi every few hours. We bought the additional keypad and the keypad sometimes works and sometimes it doesn’t. Sometimes it deletes all of the codes and we have to set them up again. Currently we are on the 5th day of it not working. You might be thinking that it is the batteries but we have installed two fresh pair of name brand batteries and the keypad lights up for a second but does not work or will work one time before not working again. The router is about 15 feet from the lock so the signal strength is not an issue specially when we can have our phones working in the yard about 100 feet away just fine. We had another brand of lock that worked perfectly for 10 years and never had an issue. If you want to be frustrated and feel like you wasted your money then this is the lock for you. Otherwise do yourself a favor and choose brand.

Great, but the batteries suck.
||Posted . Owned for 5 months when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.I really do love this so much that we bought another one for our garage. After we locked ourselves out we will never not have one of these again. It didn’t work super well to add people as guests so I just put them as an owner as a workaround. Not sure if it’s something we did wrong or not. My one complaint is that the battery dies about once a month. But I just bought a bunch of them on Amazon and they go for a lot longer than the notification says it will.

Great lock. Not perfect but current best
||Posted . Owned for 3 weeks when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.There are still a few quirks but all in all this is by far the best wifi smart lock available today! Setup is easy, works great with Alexa. Apple Homekit has more of a setup issue but that is common with Homekit. Alexa works seamless. The app is solid also.

Easy peasy installation, works as advertised
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.so simple to install. This model does not need a separate device to connect to wifi which is awesome. Easy to setup in the app. Guest keys are easy to hand out. Notifications are great. Love the fact that I don't have to rekey the doors. Highly recommend.

All good!
||Posted . Owned for 1 month when reviewed.This reviewer received promo considerations or sweepstakes entry for writing a review.This smart lock is for standard household bolts. Initially bought this for my condo which uses a commercial lock and a wing bolt that does not allow for the use of the adapters. But I did install it at my home and the installation was very straightforward. You’ll get used to the app features along with the finicky smart commands with Google and Alexa. Make sure you have good wifi. Enjoy!
